Introduction This auction is for one WindZilla Permanent Magnet Generator. It is the major component in a small wind / hydro electric generation system. This generator is perfect for enthusiast who are interested in a DIY Wind Turbine Project.
Installation: Unlike conventional generators in the market where you have to tie it down to a brace, or use super glue to stabalize it, our generator has foot mount for easy installation. All you need is 4 bolts to secure the unit to whatever you like. And you will never have to spend extra money on mounts.

Curve:
Open Circuit Voltage, Reach 12V at 540RPM
The above battery charging power curve is obtained from charging a 12V 88Ah battery bank with our SolarWind Hybrid Charge Controller. (not included in this listing)
We have seen there are generators out there that hits 12V as few as 150 RPM. However, the amp output will not be impressive because in order to ramp up the voltage, thin wires must be used in the winding of the alternator which will impact the output in strong wind. As a consumer, this is a trade off that you have to decide. Our motors are built with a heavier focus on amp output and therefore it will reach 12V at: 540RPM
Since wind speed increases with height, increases to the tower height can mean enormous increases in the amount of electricity generated by a wind turbine.
